Epson TX135 Reset Waste Ink Counter
The service-required message on Epson TX135 often relates to the internal waste ink counter rather than an empty cartridge or paper fault. The steps below help you confirm and resolve that condition.
What the Epson TX135 service message means
The printer protects against possible ink overflow by monitoring an internal service counter. On Epson TX135, reaching the threshold can trigger an ink pad warning and block further jobs.
Wic Reset Connect is designed to reset the compatible counter in Epson TX135. The physical waste ink system should still be inspected and maintained when necessary.
